Pakistani forces today violated the ceasefire along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri district.

The troops resorted to small arms firing along forward areas in Baba Khori and Kala along LoC around 1930 hours, a senior district officer said.

The firing is going on intermittently, he said, adding there is no casualty.

The Pakistani Army had targeted the Poonch sector by initiating unprovoked and indiscriminate firing of small arms, automatics and mortars on October 4. Three Army jawans had suffered injuries in the incident.

On October 3, an Army jawan was killed when the Pakistani Army violated the ceasefire along the LoC in Poonch.
